How to change player acceleration in GMod

Type sv_accelerate 5 in the server console so players speed up more slowly on the ground. The default is 10; higher feels sharper.

sv_accelerate

Sets how quickly players speed up when walking or running on the ground.

sv_accelerate <value>

Examples

sv_accelerate 5

Heavier, slower acceleration.

Arguments

valueRequired
Ground acceleration.

What it does

Higher values make movement start and change direction more sharply.

Run it on your server

On a SLASHPLAY server, type it in the Console tab of the server page; the reply shows right under it. A value set there lasts until the server restarts. To keep it, add the line to garrysmod/cfg/server.cfg. New to this? Start a GMod server first.
